Abstract

The increasing accumulation of plastic waste and the rising cost of conventional construction materials have necessitated the development of sustainable alternatives. This study investigates the production, performance, and economic viability of interlocking paving blocks made from waste Polyethylene Terephthalate (PET) and Low-Density Polyethylene (LDPE) combined with sand. Plastic waste sourced from residential areas, campuses, and waste centers was processed and used as a complete binder in a plastic–sand composite at a ratio of 1:3. The produced blocks were tested for compressive strength and compared with conventional concrete interlocks. Results show that PET-based blocks achieved an average compressive strength of 4.65 N/mm², while LDPE blocks recorded 3.56 N/mm². A cost analysis revealed that plastic–sand interlocks are significantly cheaper (₦125 per unit) compared to conventional concrete blocks (₦195 per unit), representing a cost reduction of approximately 36%. The study demonstrates that plastic–sand interlocks offer economic, environmental, and waste management benefits, making them suitable for sustainable construction applications.

Abstract

There is disagreement among numerous researchers regarding sustainable office building design especially for the ideal values of Daylighting and Passive Indoor Thermal Comfort (DPITC) in tropical countries like Nigeria. The study aims to develop a framework for a sustainable office building for optimum daylighting and passive indoor thermal comfort (DPITC) in the temperate dry climate of Nigeria. Using a quantitative experimental design with OpenStudio 3.3.0 simulation tools, the study compared closed-plan (double-banked) and open-plan office building prototypes in Jalingo, Zaria, and Abuja from January to December 2024. The open-plan design demonstrated statistically significant superiority over closed-plan designs across key metrics: Daylight Autonomy (45.7%, p < .0001), Useful Daylight Illuminance (55.2%, p < .0001), Spatial Daylight Autonomy (55.2%, p < .0001), and Relative Humidity (10.6%, p < .0001). Multiple regression analysis yielded a predictive equation: A = 170.87 - 512.232WWR + 49.41PF - 8.6R, enabling architects to optimize orientation (A), window-to-wall ratio (WWR), overhang projection factor (PF), and wall R-values for DPITC. The framework provides evidence-based guidance for sustainable office design in Northern Nigeria's temperate dry climate. Findings support the hypothesis that mean effects of DPITC are significantly different for at least one of the azimuths, WWR, overhang projection factors, and R-values of external wall materials in open-plan office buildings in this climate zone.

Abstract

Abstrak Kajian mengenai pengaruh perubahan daerah tangkapan hujan akibat pengembangan disposal terhadap kebutuhan kapasitas sump masih sangat terbatas, khususnya pada tambang emas terbuka di Indonesia. Penelitian terdahulu umumnya mengkaji aspek sistem penyaliran, sedimentasi, dan hidrologi disposal secara terpisah, sehingga belum terdapat kajian yang mengintegrasikan perubahan daerah tangkapan hujan akibat ekspansi disposal dengan evaluasi kebutuhan kapasitas sump secara komprehensif. Penelitian ini bertujuan menganalisis pengaruh perubahan daerah tangkapan hujan akibat pengembangan disposal terhadap debit limpasan, potensi sedimentasi, dan kebutuhan kapasitas sump Penelitian dilakukan menggunakan metode kuantitatif deskriptif berdasarkan data curah hujan periode 2016–2025. Curah hujan rencana dihitung menggunakan distribusi Gumbel, intensitas hujan dengan metode Mononobe, dan debit limpasan dengan metode Rasional. Daerah tangkapan hujan didelineasi menggunakan data Digital Elevation Model (DEM) melalui perangkat lunak Global Mapper, sedangkan potensi erosi dan sedimentasi dihitung menggunakan metode USLE dan pendekatan Sediment Delivery Ratio (SDR). Analisis menunjukkan bahwa pengembangan disposal menyebabkan perubahan distribusi daerah tangkapan hujan yang mengakibatkan dominasi aliran menuju sump eksisting dengan debit limpasan sebesar 16,81 m³/detik, dibandingkan 8,04 m³/detik pada sump baru. Potensi sedimentasi tahunan pada sump eksisting dan sump baru masing-masing sebesar 11.631 ton/tahun dan 8.189 ton/tahun. Perubahan daerah tangkapan hujan tersebut mengakibatkan kebutuhan kapasitas tampungan sebesar 218.856 m³ untuk sump eksisting dan 51.463 m³ untuk sump baru. Kebaruan penelitian ini terletak pada pendekatan integratif yang menghubungkan secara kuantitatif perubahan daerah tangkapan hujan akibat ekspansi disposal dengan evaluasi kebutuhan kapasitas sump sebagai acuan teknis perencanaan sistem penyaliran tambang yang adaptif terhadap perubahan topografi.
